The rest of the wiki is incidentally fun. This page is fun on purpose! As more fun things come to my attention, I'll add them to the list, so keep an eye on this page.
Quizzes:
Who doesn't like showing the world what they can do? Take a study break every once in a while to remind yourself how awesome you are with these quizzes! Get a screencap of your high score (press the shift +print screen keys) and earn points for your team!
Knoword: Can you guess the word from just its first letter and its definition?
Free Rice: A multiple choice quiz with a twist: as your score gets higher, the questions get harder. And there's more! Every correct answer donates 10 grains of rice to the UN's World Food Programme. There are a ton of categories to choose from. For this class, I'll accept high scores from English Vocabulary and English Grammar.
